OUR SPECIALIZED STUDIES
Jerusalem University College
Bethel Seminary provides an outstanding opportunity both to study the
Bible in the land of the Bible, as well as to study language, social and
political culture, religions, and historical relationships in the Near East.
Bethel Seminary is a member of the Consortium of Associated Schools,
which is based at Jerusalem University College on Mount Zion, along with
some 85 other accredited institutions of higher learning from around the
world.
Jerusalem University College (JUC) is also an independent graduate
degree-granting institution of higher education in Israel. Courses are
taught by Israelis and Palestinians as well as expatriates who have lived
in the land for some time. Among the faculty of JUC are those who are
also on the faculties of Hebrew University, Tel Aviv University, Bethlehem
University, and Bar-Ilan University.
Bethel students can study at JUC for a semester as part of their Bethel
program or take advantage of one or two short-term field-based courses.

Clinical Pastoral Education

accredited CPE site and the student provides written documentation of
successful completion.
